# Forms field - Code

All components which are tagged via `form-ready` are usable inside a `form` without requiring manual integration.

## Label

Each `form-ready` component includes a `label` attribute that displays a label above the component.

```html
<ix-select label="Demo"></ix-select>
```

The `label` attribute is optional and can be left empty to display no label.

## Required indicator

To display an indicator whether a field is required, use the attribute `required`. The indicator is only displayed, when a label is set.

```html
<ix-input label="Demo" required></ix-input>
```

## Helper or feedback text

To display a helper or feedback text below your component please refer to [validation](../forms-validation).

## Counter

To display a counter on inputs or textareas, use the attribute `maxLength`. If you prefer not to display a counter, programmatically apply a custom validation.

```html
<ix-input max-length="128"></ix-input>
```
